This amendment applies term limits of two full terms to the office of [[President of the United States of America|President]]. Prior to the amendment, it had been traditional for Presidents to not run for a third term, a precedent set forth by [[George Washington]]; the tradition was broken when [[Franklin Delano Roosevelt]] was elected to four consecutive terms between 1933 and 1945. The amendment was passed by Congress in 1947 and ratified by the states in 1951.
